Bat Shit Insane Religious Fanaticism Is A Requirement For United States Empire Managers by Ms Caitlin Johnstone!
Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley):
The world is ruled by religious fanatics with nukes.
During her Senate confirmation hearing for United Nations ambassador, Donald Trump nominee Elise Stefanik was asked by Senator Chris Van Hollen if she agreed with Israeli Nazis Itamar Ben Gvir and Bezalel Smotritch that Israel has a "Biblical right" to the West Bank. Stefanik said yes.
It is so wild how bat shit insane religious delusions are almost a prerequisite for acceptance in the highest echelons of Official Washington,D.C.. These confirmation hearings are like,
"Are you mentally ill enough to do United States foreign policy?"
"Yes, I have the requisite mental illnesses to do United States foreign policy."
"Your brain is a festering stew of psychosis and you have trouble distinguishing fantasy from reality?"
"Yes, I promise that is the case."
The world is ruled by religious fanatics with nukes. If a normal person says they are the second coming of Jesus Christ they get medicated and institutionalized. If you make equally insane religious claims on the Senate floor, they let you run an empire.
The Anti-Defamation League has published a statement defending Elon Musks use of blatant Nazi salutes at Donald Trumps inauguration rally, saying he "made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute," and saying that everyone should "take a breath" over the controversy and give Musk "the benefit of the doubt".
The ADL telling everyone to cool their jets about Elon Musk throwing up textbook Nazi salutes at a political event should be the final nail in the coffin for the "antisemitism" narrative. It will not be, but it should be.
This makes it so transparently obvious that groups like the ADL do not exist to curb discrimination against Jews, they exist to promote the geopolitical and military interests of an apartheid state in the middle east.
This is why you see them spending 99 percent of their energy shrieking about high-profile supporters of Palestinian human rights like Jeremy Corbyn and Greta Thunberg and almost no energy focusing on actual antisemitic white supremacists who want to hurt Jews.
Imagine if someone like Corbyn or Thunberg had repeatedly thrown up a Nazi salute at a political event after denouncing the abuses of the state of Israel.
Just imagine how aggressively groups like the ADL would work to ensure they never appeared in public again. The entire western political-media class would unify to stomp their reputation through the floorboards forever.
But because it came from someone who has been falling all over himself to support the information interests of Israel, we get "This is a delicate moment, it was just an awkward hand gesture."
There is no antisemitism crisis in our society. There is not. It is a lie. A lie that has been cynically promoted by institutions like the ADL to shut down criticism of genocidal atrocities by a tyrannical apartheid state. That is all we have ever been looking at here.
This is a delicate moment. It is a new day and yet so many are on edge. Our politics are inflamed, and social media only adds to the anxiety.
It seems that elonmusk made an awkward gesture in a moment of enthusiasm, not a Nazi salute, but again, we appreciate that people are on..- ADL (ADL) January 20, 2025
To be clear, I do not particularly care that Elon Musk very clearly made Nazi salutes. We have just spent 15 months watching the United States empire carry out a live-streamed genocide, and Elon Musk is one of the managers of that empire. Doing Nazi salutes just puts an accurate wrapper on the product.
My favorite genre of tweet right now is liberals going "Haha, those Chinese people on RedNote would have you believe they know more about China than I, a westerner who has watched television."
Donald Trump does not deserve accolades for not continuing a genocide, Biden deserves to be thrown into a wood chipper for DOING the genocide.
Do not get it backwards: you do not get credit for NOT doing genocide. We are not supposed to feel grateful and elated that a president might perhaps have decided not to do the single worst thing a person can possibly do. Not doing genocide is the most basic, bare-minimum expectation you could possibly have of someone; it is so baseline it normally does not even need to be said.
Do not get tricked into thinking Donald Trump pulled off some kind of diplomatic magic trick here. He just did the normal thing.
Do not let them dupe you into being grateful for it. It was always this easy. All that needed to happen to push the ceasefire through was for the president to say "Yeah we are not going to keep supporting that genocide."
For 15 months Joe Biden and his handlers actively chose to keep doing genocide, and they deserve the highest order of punishment for doing so.
Do not let them ratchet the Overton window further into the direction of murder and tyranny by thinking a president NOT doing genocide is some special thing you need to be appreciative of.
Do not let them force you to beg for crumbs. The only appropriate response to those 15 months of genocidal atrocities is the severe punishment of everyone responsible.
If "international law" was a real thing that actually existed, every nation which facilitated the destruction of Gaza would be forced to rebuild it immediately and war crimes tribunals would already be underway.
But international law does not exist in any meaningful way. Domestic laws exist because states have the power to enforce them, but there is no international body which has the power to force the United States-centralized empire to stop committing mass atrocities.
The reality is that we still live in an ultimately lawless world where tyrants do as they please, and the only rules of any real consequence are the ones which benefit the tyrants.
Domestic laws exist because it would never do for the masses to start killing the rich and powerful and taking back what has been stolen from them.
The ruling tyrants pretend international laws exist in order to justify "humanitarian interventions" and economic sanctions against disobedient governments.
In all cases what we are really seeing is the people with the guns and the bombs dictating how everyone else is allowed to act. That is not the rule of law, it is just garden variety totalitarianism with some narrative spin painted overtop it.
We will never live in a world where true justice is allowed to flourish as long as we are dominated by a tyrannical globe-spanning empire.
Until then we remain in this wild west environment where the biggest band of thugs with the biggest guns make the rules!!
